Answer key

For grown-ups. Fold this page away before handing over the rest.

1 hour · 1 hour equals 60 minutes, and 60 is more than 50.
240 · Each hour has 60 minutes, so multiply 4 by 60.
24 · A full day always has 24 hours.
120 · Each hour has 60 minutes, so multiply 2 by 60.
1 hour · 1 hour is 60 minutes, and 60 minutes is more than 50 minutes.
120 · Each hour is 60 minutes, so 2 hours is 60 + 60 = 120 minutes.
90 · Change the hour part into minutes, then add the extra minutes.
Team B · Change 2 hours into minutes, then compare it to 90 minutes.
No, it is 180 minutes · 3 hours is 3 lots of 60 minutes: 60 + 60 + 60 = 180 minutes, not 300.
19 · A day has 24 hours. Count back: 24 minus 5 leaves 19 hours still to go.
